Lucas Noguiera came out of nowhere to eek out a spot on the big board over Nikola Vucevic and Tyler Honeycutt. Be honest people, was it the smile?
Now, that's not to say there isn't any merit to Noguiera. He's a legit 7' tall with a freakish 7'6" wingspan and a vertical that makes you think he drops down from the ceiling. His offensive skills are very raw, but he tore up the defensive end last year in the U-18 FIBA Tournament. There's serious questions about his motor and ball IQ, but all things considered, rookie JaVale McGee would be a pretty fair comp. Not too shabby.
